| Derek - stay level headed and composed mate.
Get as much evidence as possible re road conditions.
If possible get a light meter and measure the ambient light in all areas of the road - where the coppers were stood, where the bike was pulled, where the bend is etcetera for the same times as your lad was pulled.
did the coppers have there helmets on and visors down?
Get a weather description if possible for the night it happened.
Get measurements.
It all helps to show you've built the most complete picture as to conditions of visibility and if prove the coppers were in error.
Best of luck.
[jokingly]And if all else fails, can't you just say the lad was familiarising himself with the digital speedo?[/jokingly]
ps, I'm sure there was a safety campaign some time ago which stated the estimation of speed of a bike with it's lights on was most often incorrect.
